The 3 day tour was a perfect way to explore Sri Lanka when you are pushed for time. There was a lot of great site to see but also balanced so that it's not too tiring. Accommodation was comfortable and clean. My guide Krishan was a fantastic host, he made sure I felt safe and looked after everything. This is very handy particularly for a solo travellers. All the guides were really knowledgeable and generous in sharing what they know. He went out of his way to ensure I get a coffee enroute to help me with my caffeine addition! Thank you for being a great host to your beautiful country KrishanShow more

  Traveler•Written October 2025
  Will Colombo be the first drop off point after the tour? In that case I guess it would make more sense to stay the night over in Colombo and leave in the morning for Mirissa!
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written October 2025
  Colombo & negombo/Airport near by locations, 30 minutes from 1 point to other point, Yes better stay night in Colombo and move next day morning.
